Sample questions from this week's game

True or False: When the Israelites were trapped between the Red Sea and Pharaoh's army, Moses told them to 'stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.'

Exodus 14:13

Show answer

True — True! Moses spoke these powerful words of faith: 'Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.' Even in their most desperate moment, Moses trusted that God would deliver them.

You're standing at the edge of the Red Sea. Behind you, Pharaoh's entire army is charging. In front of you, an impossible body of water. Everyone around you is panicking. What do you do?

Exodus 14:13-14

Show answer

Trust Moses and God — stand still, have faith, and watch for God's deliverance — Moses declared, 'The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.' When we face situations that seem impossible from every angle, God asks us to trust Him. He specializes in making a way where there seems to be no way.
